Monogram

More than a Spirit Mark

Four versions of the Monogram

The Notre Dame monogram is the University’s most recognizable logo. However, it is not the primary mark for the University academy. Therefore, it should only be used by non-academic units such as campus services, alumni clubs, and student groups.

It is familiar and recognizable to our key audiences and represents the spirit of the University. Therefore, it may be used prominently in certain communications.
